PEMBROKE WELSH CORGI

The Pembroke Welsh Corgi is a long (by its body compared
to the legs), low to the ground dog. Its back is actually not longer than those
of most dogs’; their legs are just very short in comparison. The skull is wide
and flat between the ears. The stop is moderate. The topline is level. The nose
is black and the jaw meets in a scissors bite. The oval eyes are shades of
brown depending on the dog’s coat color. The eye rims are black. The erect ears
are medium in size, tapering slightly to a rounded point. The legs are very
short. The feet are oval in shape. Dewclaws are usually removed. The dog is sometimes
born with no tail, and is docked as short as possible when it does have a tail.
Note: it is illegal to dock tails in most parts of Europe. The double coat has
a short, thick, weather resistant undercoat with a longer, coarser outer coat.
Some Corgis are born with longer coats called the "fluffy Corgi" or
"longhaired Corgi." These dogs do not make the written standard and
cannot be shown. Coat colors include red, sable, fawn, black and tan with white
markings. There are often white markings on the legs, chest, neck and parts of
the muzzle.
